The golden years, taken literally.
Three not-for-profit life plan communities across Green Country, each with cottages, apartments and every level of care, and one promise behind all three.
- 1983first campus opened in Owasso
- 3campuses across Green Country
- 640residents across every level of care
Chapter one
Three campuses. One way of caring.
Goldenrod Hill began in 1983 on a goldenrod-covered rise east of Owasso, when three Tulsa County congregations decided their parents deserved somewhere to grow old that felt like the country they'd farmed. Bixby followed in 1997, along the Arkansas River gardens. Claremore joined in 2011, a few blocks from the Will Rogers Memorial.
Every campus has cottages and apartments, assisted living, memory care and a skilled nursing center. Residents can move between campuses to be near family, and their contract goes with them. And in more than forty years, no resident has ever been asked to leave because their money ran out.

We believe the late afternoon of a life can be its best light. Long talks in the tall grass, Sunday picnics, a grandchild's hand in yours. We build the care around those hours so that nothing important has to wait, and nobody has to move away from the people they love.

Sample family reviews
In their words
We started at Owasso and moved to Bixby to be near our daughter. Same contract, same kind of people, new friends by the end of the week.
I watch the sun go down over the goldenrod meadow every evening from my porch. Forty years of farming and I never had time to.
When Mama moved to Goldenrod Cottage, Daddy walked over every afternoon with a picnic basket. The staff set out a blanket for them.
Dad's savings ran out after a long illness. The benevolence fund meant he never had to leave.
My knee rehab was in the Health Center, and my wife walked over from our cottage twice a day.
They explained both contracts at our kitchen table and gave us everything in writing.
The nurses call us in Dallas after every care meeting. We always know how Mom is.
I do tai chi on the lawn at eight and swim at ten. My doctor says keep doing whatever I'm doing.
The Fourth of July picnic is the best party in Owasso. I'm on the flag committee.
I moved to Claremore to be near my grandkids. They come for lunch in the café every Saturday.
Chef Antoine's Sunday pot roast is the reason my brother visits.
Daddy's last weeks were in the Health Center with the window open to the meadow and the chaplain by his side. It was gentle.
